I went to the botanical garden in Porto and there was barely anyone except for a few university students reading in the shade. The place had a mystical aura, which I captured best with this photo, I think
My absolute favorite place on earth is the hosta glade at the UMN arboretum. Sometimes I bring a sketchbook, I usually listen to music, sometimes I just sit in nature for a couple hours!! It really is healing, and youβre supporting a good cause!
it's helped me get through so many tasks i've dreaded or was too depressed or bogged down in the details to do. even just sitting in silence with another human working on their own thing is helpful. even if it's virtual! sometimes it's just hard to do stuff alone. and talking through stuff with someone who has more grace for me than i do can help get me out of my head
